T0 aZZ whom it may 001t00rn:

Be it known that I, PIERRE DELoRME, J r., a citizen of the Republic of France, and a resident of Rue Charlot, Paris, France, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Automatic Molds for All Pieces in Glass or Ceramic Material, (for which I have obtained Letters Patent in France, No. 263,57 7, dated January 29, 1897; in England, No. 10,691, dated April 29, 1897; in Switzerland, No. 14,533, dated May 1, 1897; in Italy, No. 44,632, dated May 5, 1897; in Belgium, No. 127,902, dated April 28, 18 97, and in Austria, No. 2,909, dated April29, 1897,) of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

This invention relates to an automatic mold for the production of various articles of glassware or like material having holes or hollow portions therein.

My invention consists in the novel construction and assemblage of the operating parts of the mold, as will be fully described herein and specifically set forth in the annexed claim.

In the accompanying drawings, Figures 1, 2, and 3 are longitudinal sections of different pieces produced by my mold. Fig. 4 is a transverse elevation of a mold adapted to produce the piece shown in Fig. 1, the mold being open. Fig. 5 is an end elevation, partly sectional. Fig. 0 is a mold for producing the piece shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 7 is the mold for producing the piece shown in Fig. 3.

Referring to the drawings, A is a base of cast-iron upon which the mold ismounted. This moldis formed of two piecesD E, jointed together by a hinge O. A bolt d passes through the piece E and is adapted to turn freely therein. To its outer end a lever d is fixed and by means of which it is operated, and its other end is turned over, forming a hook adapted for engagement with the rear wall of the piece D when the mold is closed, thus holding the parts D and E closely together.

A shaft 13, mounted in suitable journals 1) in the base A, is adapted to be oscillated by means of the lever C, which is fixed to one in Fig. 1.

end thereof. Upon this shaft B are fixed the cam slotted collars F, G, and H'. Operated, respectively, by the eccentrics F, G, and H are the levers f, g, and h, each fulcrumed to suitable lugs mounted upon the base.

The upper or free ends of the levers f, g, and h engage with and operate the reciprocating members f, g, and h, respectively. Said reciprocating members work in suitable bearings supported by the main frame. A projecting spur f fixed to the member f, is adapted to form the hole j" in Fig. 1. The projecting spur 7L2, fixed to the member It, produces the hole 72. in Fig. 1 and the spur g fixed to the member g, produces the hole 9 An upwardly-projected semicircular wall M on the frame of the machine at its: top forms one side of the cup L and a similar projection of the part E forms the opposing side wall of said cup. The hole m communicates between said cup and mold.

The parts being in position, as shown in Fig. 4, the member E is raised and locked to the member D. The molten glass is then poured in the cup L, from which it flows through the hole m into the mold. When cool, the shaft B is operated by means of the lever C, the parts moving in the direction of the arrow. Through the medium of the camslotted collars and levers the parts f 9 and h are withdrawn from the mold, the mold unlocked and opened, and the glass formed will then fall out. A reverse operation again puts the mold in condition for another cast- In Figs. 6 and 7 the pieces formed are not the same, but are obtained by the same means, the molds and forms only being different In Fig. 6 the lever f actuatesasemicircular form which produces the hole f in Fig. 2.

In Fig. 7 the spur g forms the hole 9 in Fig. 3, while the hole 9 in Fig. 3 is formed by the part 02, which is operated by hand.

Any and all piecescontaininga hollow cav- 5 ity or hole may be cast with my mold of any molten substance, and it is obvious the operating parts may be changed without departing from the spirit of my invention.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters In testimony that I claim the foregoing as 10 Patent, is my invention I have signed my name, in pres- In a machine for molding molten material, enoe of the subscribing Witnesses, this 23d day a shaft, cam-slotted collars fixed thereon, leof March, 1897. 5 vers aotuatedb said collars forms 0 erated by said levers? a jointed mold hinged to- PIERRE DELORME JUNIOR gether, and means for looking the parts of Witnesses:
